Light of two different frequencies whose...

Light of two different frequencies whose photons have energies 1 eV and 2.5 eV respectively illuminate a metallic surface whose work function is 0.5 eV successively. The ratio of maximum speed of emitted elections will be

A

`1:4`

B

`4:1`

C

`1:2`

D

`2:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`(K_(1))/(K_(2)) = (hv_(1) - phi_(1))/(hv_(2) - phi_(2)) = (1 - 0.5)/(2.5 - 0.5) = 1/4`
